Cadwallader, Harvey -- Through a newspaper clipping, Mrs. John A. Adams discovered that her nephew, Harvey Cadwallader, a brother of Albert Cadwallader of Shelby, had been buried in an unknown grave. The aunt saw the clipping which had been sent out from Delaware, O. and was led to believe it was her nephew. The man had been taken ill at the police station at Delaware and died in a hospital there. During his delirium, he mentioned the name Cadwallader. He was identified beyond a doubt by the description the mayor of Delaware sent the aunt. He was buried in an unknown grave at Delaware but will be removed by his relatives and buried at Sycamore, O.

Cahill, Abraham -- We have hitherto neglected to notice the death of Abraham Cahill, Esq. which occurred at San Antonia, Texas, December 7th., 1868, whither he had gone, accompanied by his brother D. Cahill, with a hope of restoring his failing health. Mr. Cahill was one of our earliest friends in Ohio, becoming first acquainted with him while yet a member of his father's family, a few miles from this place, and the friendship then formed, continued without interruption, to the close of his life. He was a member of the Lutheran Church at Dayton, where the funeral obsequies were performed on the 30th. ult. The Dayton Ledger thus closes a notice of his death. "Thus has passed from earth a man whose mind was rich with culture, a lawyer learned in his profession, and a Christian, whose every-day walk in life, was an example well worthy of imitation. While yet young in years, he was cut down and gathered to his Fathers. His ashes rest amid the hills that overlook our beautiful city, where the most important part of his life was spent. Side by side with the companion of his bosom, he sleeps the long sleep of death. The trees of the forest bend mournfully above his grave, while gentle zephyrs sing his requiem. Requiescat in peace."

Cahill, Michael -- Michael Cahill, one of the oldest railroad men in the state, was so seriously injured on the B.&O. at Lexington, at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon, says Saturday's Shield, that he died a few minutes after being removed from the scene of the accident. Mr. Cahill was in charge of a gang of section men who were clearing the snow off what is known as the coal track near the depot at Lexington. The main track was occupied by a freight train waiting for a helper to drop down into the siding between the coal track and the main track after helping a train up the grade to Alta. Mr. Cahill stepped on the side track a moment to fill and light his pipe and while standing there he was struck by the rear end of the returning helper and carried under the wheels. His clothing caught on a truck and he was dragged some 150 feet before a signal to Engineer Goer brought the engine to a stop. As soon as the engineer received the signal to stop he reversed his engine and dragged the helpless man back for twenty feet. The only words spoken by the dying man was "See boys, I'm done for" uttered after being taken out from under the tender by his men. He was taken to his home nearby where he expired. He was badly cut up, his left arm and left leg being severed from the body. Mr. Cahill was born in Ireland 65 years ago and came to this country when a boy. He had been a resident of Lexington for nearly forty years, during all of which time he had been working on the section and for the last twenty years he had been a section boss. He was well bundled up yesterday owing to the cold. He leaves a wife, three sons and four daughters. W.P. Cahill, of New Castle, Pa., train dispatcher of the B.&O.; Michael Cahill, of Scranton, Pa., trainmaster of the D., L.&W., and Thomas Cahill, of Lexington, are his sons. Misses Rose, Jennie and Maggie, of Lexington, and Mary, of this city, are his daughters. The deceased was a member of St. Peter's Catholic Church in this city and the funeral services will be held there at 8:30 o'clock Monday morning. -- [Bellville Messenger: 15 January 1903, Vol. 11, No. 2]

Cairns, John G. -- John G. Cairns, for some time janitor at the Bowman Street School building, was found dead Monday afternoon about 3:30 o'clock in the basement of the school building. The discovery was made by his son Roy, who usually assisted his father in the janitor work. On going to the basement after school had closed Roy was horrified to find the body of his father lying near the coal pile. The dead man still had a shovel in his hand and death had evidently overtaken him while he was engaged in shoveling coal into the furnace. Dr. Davis was sent for and, on arriving, pronounced Mr. Cairns dead and that he had probably been dead 20 minutes or more before he was found. Death is supposed to have resulted from a stroke of apoplexy, though the opinion is also given that it was due to heart disease. Mr. Cairns was in good health and spirits Monday. Mr. Cairns had a fall while coming down stairs the day before and had hurt himself. This was thought to have contributed toward his death. His sudden demise comes as a sad blow to his wife and children as well as to a host of friends and acquaintances who join in expressing kindest sympathy to the bereaved family. Coroner Baughman was notified and viewed the body, after which it was taken to the late home of the deceased at 93 Orchard Street. Mr. Cairns was well known here, where he has lived for many years. He was a jovial, wholesouled man, and all who had dealings with him knew him as a straightforward, upright citizen. He was a soldier of the civil war, also was a member of the Knights of Pythias. He was at one time a mail carrier in the city, serving when George W. Statler was postmaster. Mr. Cairns was twice married. He leaves five children by his first wife, Harry M., Roy and George R., and Mrs. Anna L. Eby, of Rockford, Ill. and Nellie, of this city. His first wife died in December, 1883, and a second wife and several children survive. The deceased was born Jan. 27, 1840. Coroner Baughman held the inquest this morning at 9 o'clock at his office on Park Avenue East. Funeral Thursday, Dec. 8, at 2 p.m. [picture available] -- [Mansfield Semi-Weekly News: 09 December 1898, Vol. 14, No. 101]

Cairns, Robert -- One by one the old residents of Mansfield pass over the river to join the great majority. Robert Cairns, the oldest citizen who was born in Mansfield, died at his home on West Bloom Street yesterday morning. About two years ago Mr. Cairns sustained a paralytic stroke, but he sufficiently recovered to be able to walk down street. His health was broken, however, and three weeks ago he sustained another paralytic stroke and it was thought by the attending physicians he could survive only a few days, but he made a remarkable fight with Death. Last Tuesday he became unconscious and remained so until Friday, when he rallied and was able to talk and recognize different members of his family. Friday evening he again became unconscious, in which state he remained until his death. Robert Cairns was born in the old McFall building, which stood at the corner of Main and Third streets, Feb. 3rd., 1815. He was the second child born in Mansfield, Mansfield Gilkinson being the first. In 1818 his parents moved across the street to the corner now occupied by A.B. Dittenhoefer's clothing store. There the family remained until Robert attained his majority. In 1835 he married Miss Elizabeth Gordon, the ceremony being performed by Rev. James Johnson, the first United Presbyterian minister in Mansfield. Mrs. Cairns died four years ago. Mr. & Mrs. Cairns removed to Jackson Township immediately after their marriage, where they lived until 1875, when they moved back to the city. Mr. Cairns was always an ardent Democrat and his friends and neighbors recognized his ability by electing him a Justice of the Peace, and he served the people of Jackson Township in that capacity for many years. To Mr. & Mrs. Cairns nine children were born. The following named are still living: Mrs. D.R.P. Myers, John G. Cairns, Mrs. Jackson Cline, Mrs. J.H. Miller, Mrs. Robt. L. Patterson, of this city; Joseph Cairns, Mrs. Henry Beam of Spring Mills, and Richard Cairns, who lives on the old homestead in Jackson Township. Robert Cairns, Jr., died eight years ago. Robert Cairns' father, Joseph Cairns, came to Richland County from Muskingum County shortly after Hull's surrender of Detroit. He had been a captain in one of the Ohio regiments in the earlier part of the second war with Great Britain. Mr. Cairns had a wonderfully accurate memory and, having been born in this city when it was a hamlet, he enjoyed nothing better than telling of the good old times, how he and his playmates romped where tall business buildings now stand. Besides his children and a host of friends the deceased leaves one sister, Mrs. Harriett McLaughlin, relict of Gen. Wm. McLaughlin. In his death, Mansfield sustains a great loss, but his years were many and the Harvester of all plucked the ripened sheaf. The funeral will be held tomorrow afternoon at 1:30 o'clock, from his late home. Rev. F.B. Foster will officiate. -- [Richland Shield & Banner: 17 November 1894, Vol. LXXVII, No. 27]

For a number of years past it had been his custom to spend the summer months in this city, where his skilled services as physician and surgeon were sought in council by other members of the profession, and to pass the winter months in the South. Recently he determined to make his permanent home in this city, but ere he was enabled to carry his plans into execution, he was cut down by man’s last and greatest foe. His remains were brought to this city Tuesday evening and funeral services, under the auspices of Mansfield Commandery Knights Templar, of which order the deceased was an old and honored member, were held at Grace (Episcopal) Church this afternoon at 2 o’clock. [Ohio Liberal: 14 February 1883]

Cantwell, James -- The telegraph brings us the melancholy intelligence that Colonel James Cantwell, of the 82d. Ohio was killed in one of the battles near Manassas last week. Although we have not read anything beside the above bare announcement, we have every reason to believe it is true. Col. Cantwell came to this county about forty years ago from Jefferson County, in this State. From his manhood he was known as one of the most prominent citizens, always taking a leading part in every measure of public interest. Several years ago he was elected to the House of Representatives of the State, and after the expiration of his term there he was nominated and chosen a Senator from this district, composed of Richland and Ashland Counties. In 1859 he was renominated, but was defeated by Dr. Glass. Sometime the following year Col. Cantwell moved to Kenton, Hardin County, where he purchased a hotel, of which he became landlord, and also a flouring mill. In the spring of 1861, immediately on the President's call for 75,000 men, Col. C recruited a company and became its Captain. This company was assigned to the Fourth Regiment, and on its organization, Col. C. was chosen Lieutenant-Colonel and the late Lord Andrews Colonel. After Col. Andrews' death, Col. Cantwell remained in command of the 4th. Ohio. It was during this time that the battle of Romney was fought, which victory brought Col. C into favorable notices everywhere. Notwithstanding this brilliant evidence of his capacity another man was appointed over his head, which forced him to resign. Receiving permission to recruit a regiment, he went to work in his usual vigorous manner, and in less time than had been required to fill any regiment in the State, reported the 32d. as ready for marching orders. It was sent, we believe, to Beverly, Va., where it remained through the winter. Early in the spring it was ordered to Cumberland, and shortly after was placed in Fremont's corps. The 82d. has been in several engagements, the principal two of which, besides the late engagements, were McDowell and Cross Keys. Wherever it has been engaged it has conducted itself with honor to its State and its Colonel. Col. Cantwell was a brave soldier, and though we have as yet seen no details of his death, we are confident he died gallantly. He never asked anyone to follow where he was unwilling to lead -- and wherever he fell it was in discharge of his duty. No nobler man in all this war has sealed his devotion to his country with his blood than James Cantwell. With a heart full of the finest impulses, ever prompting to deeds of kindness, Col. C. was beloved by all, and we know of no one whose loss would be more deplored by our citizens than his is. Let those who have gone out from this county emulate his example and avenge his death. Col. Cantwell leaves a large family, who are now residing in Kenton. P.S. -- Since the above was written we have been permitted to copy the following dispatch from Mrs. Cantwell to Mr. John Crall of this city. "Kenton, Sept. 2. Col. Cantwell fell on Friday, shot through the head. He died on the battlefield. -- Sarah Cantwell." [Mansfield Semi-Weekly Herald: 03 September 1862]

Carpenter, George F. -- After a long illness, a general breaking down of the physical forces due to advanced age, George F. Carpenter died at 11 o'clock Tuesday night at his home on Marion avenue. Funeral Friday, Nov. 15, at 2 p.m. Mr. & Mrs. Frank G. Carpenter, of Washington, and Mr. & Mrs. C.F. Tandy, of Vevay, Ind. are here for the funeral. George F. Carpenter was born Aug. 3, 1820 in Worthington township, Richland county. He was married July 2, 1852 to Jennette L. Reid of Mansfield, whose death occurred in 1888. By this marriage he had six children. Reid, Frank, John, Jennette, Dan and Lizzie, of whom John and Dan are deceased. Reid and Lizzie, the latter Mrs. Findley are residents of this city. Frank G., the well-known journalist and author, lives in Washington and Jennette (Mrs. Tandy) resides at Vevay, Ind. In 1890 Mr. Carpenter married Katherine Colden, who survives him. Mr. Carpenter came to Mansfield in 1842 and studied law with James Purdy, and was admitted to the bar at New Lisben in 1845 and formed a partnership which continued until 1847, when he formed a partnership with Gen. William McLaughlin which continued until 1852. He then resumed the practice of law alone for several years, after which he formed a partnership with Col. Isaac Gass. He was in the army from April 6, 1863, till Nov. 12, 1865. He was appointed paymaster of the Army of the Cumberland. After the war he returned to Mansfield and resumed the practice of law. In 1874 he entered into partnership with ex-Postmaster Henry P. Davis, which continued for many years and they occupied the same office after the discontinuance of the law partnership some years ago. Mr. Carpenter, during his active professional and business life, served in a number of official capacities, having been mayor in 1856 and later serving as councilman for a number of years. He was one of the incorporators and the vice president of the Citizens' National Bank. Mr. Carpenter was ever an active useful citizen who has been identified with the growth and prosperity of the city. Not of demonstrative or effusive nature, he was nevertheless a positive and influential factor in public affairs. He was diligent in all affairs of life, was a wise counselor in law and in business and to his public services brought intelligent and effective faculties. In politics a Republican he ws in no sense a political bigot, but broad-minded and conservative. In his over half century in the law practice he was the contemporary of many of the early day giants of the bar. He was the firm friend of John Sherman, when the latter began his public life and was ever his admirer and staunch supporter. His associates in the law practice were men whose names like his own, are honorably identified with Mansfield's history. He leaves to his family and to the city where his long life was spent the heritage of an honorable name and a useful career. [Mansfield News: 13 November 1901, Vol. 17, No. 217] << photo >>

Carpenter, Jennette -- bur. 8/1888 at Mansfield Cem., tumor of bladder, 59y [Mansfield Herald: 31 January 1889]

Carpenter, John L. -- The Sad Death of a Former Mansfield Young Man, at Holdrege, Nebraska -- Mr. George Carpenter, of this city, received a telegram on Saturday last announcing the death of his third son, John L. Carpenter, at Holdrege, Nebraska, at eleven o'clock on that morning. Full particulars have not yet arrived, and all that ca be gathered in from the various telegrams received by the family. From them it seems that on the 22d. inst. the deceased started to go into the country on business. Just as he was leaving the town the horse got his tail over the lines and began to kick violently. Mr. Carpenter at once jumped from the carriage, thinking to catch the horse, but in alighting, he broke his leg between the knee and the ankle. Kind friends were present at the time and these carried him into town and an efficient surgeon set the leg. At this time the wound was not considered at all dangerous. That same afternoon, Mr. Carpenter wrote home to his father, using a pencil, saying that he had broken his leg but that there was not danger; that he could get along very well and that none of the family need come out to take care of him. He said he expected to be home by the middle of August, and that he had plenty of friends and the best of treatment. This letter was received Friday morning. The following mail brought a letter of the same purport, from his friend, Mr. J.W. Ferguson, a banker of an adjoining town. Before these letters reached Mansfield, on Thursday afternoon, came a telegram from Mr. Ferguson, saying that though there was no danger, some one of the family had best come out. On the receipt of it, Mr. Reid Carpenter came at once from Cleveland and on Friday took the first fast train for the West. At this time nothing dangerous was apprehended. Friday afternoon, however, other dispatches came saying that John's condition was very serious indeed, and that he could not live. From this time on up until two P.M. Saturday, telegrams of the same nature were received at short intervals, and at that hour came the sad news "John died peacefully and quietly at five minutes past eleven this morning." The family, up to this time, had hoped against hope, and the news was a terrible blow. Mr. Reid Carpenter arrived in Holdrege Sunday night, and he will bring the remains, which were at once properly embalmed, here for burial. They will reach here on Thursday and the funeral will probably take place Friday. Few men have started life with brighter prospects than did John L. Carpenter. He was, at the time of his death, almost 27 years of age. He was the embodiment of health and full of energy, industry and life. Nine years ago he graduated at the public schools of Mansfield, the first man in his class, taking the valedictory oration. Four years later he had finished his collegiate course at Wooster University, where he also ranked among the highest. He was a popular student at college; he took a leading place in literary society as a debater and he was one of the chief officers of the Beta Theta Pi College Fraternity, which has chapters in nearly every college in the United States. At the time of his graduation, with no application on his part, the Aultman & Taylor Manufacturing Company, voluntarily offered him the charge of their collections in Kansas and Nebraska. He accepted the position, and for four years gave them efficient and satisfactory service. Last year he decided to leave them and to strike out for himself. Giving them due notice he did so, and chose Holdrege, Nebraska, as his field. Holdrege is a fast growing town in Western Nebraska, almost 1,300 miles from Mansfield. In November last, when Mr. Carpenter settled there and opened as a loan broker, it had only two houses. Now it has from 800 to 1,000 population, and does as much business as any town of 2,500 in the State of Ohio. It has two big elevators, several banks, plenty of stores of various kinds and promises to become the county seat of the county. It is now on the main line of a great railroad, and it has a population of active, thrifty, young western business men. Of this town, John L. Carpenter was one of the leading factors, and like the town, was doing well. He had a fair amount of capital, part of which was his own savings and the remainder the gift of his father, and he had the brains and experience to know how to use it. He was well fitted to make a good fight in life anywhere, and especially fitted for the West. He was a good-looking, bright eyed, sociable fellow, full of pluck, energy and honesty, allied to good business judgment and a strong will. Had he lived there is no doubt that he would have been one of the leading men of his State, and as it was he had already strong friends among the business men all over it. At the time of his death a number of his friends were present, some of them coming long distances by rail to see that he was well taken care of. He died in a house which he had built for himself in the center of the town, and his family have no doubt but that he had the best of care and attention. It is a great regret to them that they could not have gotten to him after he was hurt. But the time between the accident and his death was so short that it was impossible. No one but those who have such losses can appreciate them, and John Carpenter's many friends in Mansfield and throughout Northern Ohio will unite with them in their grief.
